lovely lyrics The Cars Who's gonna tell you when It's too late Who's gonna tell you things Aren't so great You can't go on Thinking nothing's wrong, but bye Who's gonna drive you home tonight Who's gonna pick you up When you fall Who's gonna hang it up When you call Who's gonna pay attention To your dreams Who's gonna plug their ears When you scream You can't go on Thinking nothing's wrong Who's gonna drive you home tonight Who's gonna hold you down When you shake Who's gonna come around When you break You can't go on Thinking nothing's wrong Who's gonna drive you home tonight Oh you know you can't go on Thinking nothing's wrong Who's gonna drive you home tonight Answer? God. IP: Logged |

St. Teresa -- Joan OsborneSit down on the corner, just a little climb When I make my money, got to get my dime Sit down with her baby, wind is full of trash She bold as the street light, dark and sweet as hash Way down in the hollow, leavin' so soon Oh, St. Teresa higher than the moon Reach down for the sweet stuff, when she looks at me I know any man sees you like I see Follow down the side street movin' single file, she say That's where I'll hold you, sleeping like a child Way down in the hollow, leavin' so soon Oh, St. Teresa higher than the moon Just what I've been needin', feel it rise in me, she say Every stone a story, like a rosary Corner St. Teresa, just a little crime When I make my money, got to get my dime Way down in the hollow, leavin' so soon Oh, St. Teresa higher than the moon You called up in the sky You called up in the clouds Is there something you forgot to tell me Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me Show me my Teresa, feel it rise in me Every stone a story, like a rosary http://www.elyrics.net/read/j/joan-osborne-lyrics/st.-teresa-lyrics.html

"Watching the Wheels" John LennonPeople say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing, Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin, When I say that I'm o.k. they look at me kind of strange, Surely you're not happy now you no longer play the game, People say I'm lazy, dreaming my life away. Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me. When I tell them I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall, "Don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball?" I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round. I really love to watch them roll. No longer riding on the merry-go-round, I just had to let it go. People asking questions, lost in confusion. Well I tell them there's no problem, Only solutions. Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind, I tell them there's no hurry... I'm just sitting here doing time. I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round. I really love to watch them roll. No longer riding on the merry-go-round, I just had to let it go. I just had to let it go. ____________________________________
"Whatever Gets You Through The Night" John Lennon
Whatever gets you through the night 'salright, 'salright It's your money or your life 'salright, 'salright Don't need a sword to cut through flowers oh no, oh no Whatever gets you through your life 'salright, 'salright Do it wrong or do it right 'salright, 'salright Don't need a watch to waste your time oh no, oh no Hold me darlin' come on listen to me I won't do you no harm Trust me darlin' come on listen to me, come on listen to me Come on listen, listen Whatever gets you to the light 'salright, 'salright Out the blue or out of sight 'salright, 'salright Don't need a gun to blow your mind oh no, oh no Hold me darlin' come on listen to me I won't do you no harm Trust me darlin' come on listen to me, come on listen to me Come on listen, listen

rocked out to this one in the car today.mmph! good stuff. Genesis -- No Reply At All http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DisZ6qmNdbo Talk to me, you never talk to me. Ooh, it seems that I can speak. But I can hear my voice shouting out. But theres no reply at all. Look at me, you never look at me, Ooh, Ive been sitting, staring, seems so long. But youre looking through me Like I wasnt here at all. No reply, theres no reply at all. Dance with me, you never dance with me. Ooh, it seems that I can move, Im close to you, close as I can get. Yet theres no reply at all, Theres no reply at all. I get the feeling youre tryin to tell me, Is there something that I should know? What excuse are you tryin to sell me? Should I be reading stop or go, I dont know. Be with me, seems youre never here with me, Ooh, Ive been trying to get over there. Ah, but its out of my reach. And theres no reply at all. Theres no reply at all. I get the feeling youre trying to tell me; Is there something that I should know? What excuse are you trying to sell me? Should I be reading stop or go, I dont know. Maybe deep down inside, Im trying for no one else but me. Too stubborn to say, the buck stops here. Its not the one youre looking for. But, maybe deep down inside, Im lying to no one else but me. Oh but my back is up. Im on my guard - with all the exits sealed. Listen to me, you never listen to me, Ooh, and it seems theres no way out, Ive been trying, but we cannot connect, And theres no reply at all, Theres no reply at all, Theres no reply at all, No reply at all. Is anybody listening - oh oh, No reply at all... IP: Logged |

fuel "shimmer" She calls me from the cold Just when I was low, feeling short of stable And all that she intends And all she keeps inside, isn't on the label She says she's ashamed And she can take me for a while And can I be a friend, we'll forget the past But maybe I'm not able And I break at the bend We're here and now, but will we ever be again 'Cause I have found All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade Away again She dreams a champagne dream Strawberry surprise, pink linen and white paper Lavender and cream Fields of butterflies, reality escapes her She says that love is for fools that fall behind And I'm somewhere in between I never really know A killer from a savior 'Til I break at the bend We're here and now, but will we ever be again 'Cause I have found All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade Away again
It's too far away for me to hold It's too far away.... It's too far away for me to hold It's too far away.... It's too far away for me to hold It's too far away.... It's too far away for me to hold It's too far away.... It's too far away for me to hold It's too far away.... It's too far away for me to hold It's too far away.... Guess I'll let it go http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0QMfK9hzgA

Mel, don't. i've been meaning to give you a ring, but i've been quickly using up my prepay minutes talking to my brother. i need a landline, i know! he might be getting out soon and i'm so excited for him. he will most likely come stay with me for awhile 'til we get him back on his feet. YAY! my wireless connection is acting funny too lately. i think because of the weather. hope everything's good on your end. you'll have mail soon. IP: Logged |

Foo Fighters attempting to cover Carly's...Youre So Vain http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jhqj2hM4a-c "son of a gun" You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht Your hat strategically dipped below one eye Your scarf it was apricot You had one eye in the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner They'd be your partner, and... You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you You're so vain, I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you? Don't You? You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive Well you said that we made such a pretty pair And that you would never leave But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me I had some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee Clouds in my coffee, and... I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee Clouds in my coffee, and... Well I hear you went up to Saratoga and your horse naturally won Then you flew your lear jet up to Nova Scotia To see the total eclipse of the sun Well you're where you should be all the time And when you're not you're with Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend Wife of a close friend, and...

hadnt heard this one in awhileCanary in a Coalmine - The Police http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQEIYjS1ePY First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect You live you life like a canary in a coalmine You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line You say you want to spend the winter in firenza Youre so afraid to catch a dose of influenza You live your life like a canary in a coalmine You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line Canary in a coalmine Now if I tell you that you suffer from delusions You pay your analyst to reach the same conclusions You live your life like a canary in a coalmine You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line Canary in a coalmine First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect You live your life like a canary in a coalmine You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line Canary in a coalmine

INXS "The Devil Inside" Here comes the woman With the look in her eye Raised on leather With flesh on her mind Words as weapons sharper than knives Makes you wonder how the other half die Other half die
Here come the man With the look in his eye Fed on nothing But full of pride Look at them go Look at them kick Makes you wonder how the other half live The devil inside The devil inside Every single one of us the devil inside The devil inside The devil inside Every single one of us the devil inside Here come the world With the look in its eye Future uncertain but certainly slight Look at the faces Listen to the bells It's hard to believe we need a place called hell http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYpFWyMvG3Y

The ScorpionsSend Me An Angel The wise man said just walk this way To the dawn of the light The wind will blow into your face As the years pass you by Hear this voice from deep inside It's the call of your heart Close your eyes and your will find The passage out of the dark
Here I am Will you send me an angel Here I am In the land of the morning star The wise man said just find your place In the eye of the storm Seek the roses along the way Just beware of the thorns Here I am Will you send me an angel Here I am In the land of the morning star The wise man said just raise your hand And reach out for the spell Find the door to the promised land Just believe in yourself Hear this voice from deep inside It's the call of your heart Close your eyes and your will find The way out of the dark Here I am Will you send me an angel Here I am In the land of the morning star Here I am Will you send me an angel Here I am In the land of the morning star Here I am Will you send me an angel Here I am In the land of the morning star Here I am Will you send me an angel Here I am In the land of the morning star http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_lMNufI3hA

I can hear her heart beat for a thousand miles And the heavens open every time she smiles And when I come to her thats where I belong Yet Im running to her like a rivers songChorus: She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love Shes got a fine sense of humor when Im feeling low down And when I come to her when the sun goes down Take away my trouble, take away my grief Take away my heartache, in the night like a thief Chorus: Yes I need her in the daytime Yes I need her in the night Yes I want to throw my arms around her Kiss her hug her kiss her hug her tight And when Im returning from so far away She gives me some sweet lovin brighten up my day Yes it makes me righteous, yes it makes me feel whole Yes it makes me mellow down in to my soul van morrison - crazy love

Do you have the time To listen to me whine About nothing and everything All at once I am one of those Melodramatic fools Neurotic to the bone No doubt about itSometimes I give myself the creeps Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me It all keeps adding up I think I'm cracking up Am I just paranoid? Or am I just stoned I went to a shrink To analyze my dreams She says it's lack of sex That's bringing me down I went to a ***** He said my life's a bore So quit my whining cause It's bringing her down Sometimes I give myself the creeps Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me It all keeps adding up I think I'm cracking up Am I just paranoid? Uh, yuh, yuh, ya Grasping to control So I better hold on Sometimes I give myself the creeps Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me It all keeps adding up I think I'm cracking up Am I just paranoid? Or am I just stoned

Hey....oooh... Sheets of empty canvas untouched by sheets of clay were laid spread out before me as her body once did all five horizons revolved around her soul as the earth to the sun now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn ooh and all I taught her was everything ooh I know she gave me all that she wore and now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds of what was everything oh the pictures have all been washed in black tatooed everything I take a walk outside I'm surrounded by some kids at play I can feel their laughter so why do I sear oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head I'm spinning Oh, I'm spinning How quick the sun can drop away.... and now my bitter hands cradle broken glass of what was everything All the pictures had all been washed in black tattooed everything All that I am all I'll be... Yeah Uh-huh I know someday you'll have a beautiful life I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky but why why why can't it be mine..."Black" by Pearl Jam IP: Logged |

That was my favorite song, for a while, about 15 years ago. Still a definite favorite.Also, Breath and State of Love And Trust (both off the Singles soundtrack) What else... Given to Fly Rearview Mirror Elderly Woman Behind The Counter.. Most of their songs are good, but those are my favorites.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNbTC6xLVg0 You look like a perfect fit; a girl in need of a tourniquet. But can you save me? Come on and save me. If you could save me, From the ranks of the freaks, Who suspect they could never love anyone.
'Cause I can tell you know what it's like. A long farewell of the hunger strike. But can you save me? Come on and save me. If you could save me, From the ranks of the freaks, Who suspect they could never love anyone. You struck me dumb, Like radium Like Peter Pan, or Superman, You have come to save me. Come on and save me. If you could save me, From the ranks of the freaks, Who suspect they could never love anyone, Except the freaks, Who suspect they could never love anyone, But the freaks, Who suspect they could never love anyone. Come on and save me. Why don't you save me? If you could save me, From the ranks of the freaks, Who suspect they could never love anyone, Except the freaks, Who suspect they could never love anyone, Except the freaks, Who could never love anyone.
